Marking Gauge - Hand Tool Restoration

In this video, I take a classic woodworking tool made mid 20th century, and clean and restore it back to a usable condition. I got it cheaply from an older gentleman that said it belonged to his grandfather.

He had no idea of its history, but as you'll find out, it turns out to be made by the Robinson Hall Company of Sheffield, England. Watch and listen to my process as I strip, sand and restore this antique back to it's former glory, removing rust, tarnish and old finish to hopefully get at least another 50 years out of it.
